RACK POSITIONS / USES FOR COMPANION OVENRACK POSITIONS / USES FOR COMPANION OVEN
The companion oven of the 48” range has the same capabilities as the main oven, with the exception
of True-Convection and Self-Clean. The rack position recommendations on the previous page are the
same for the companion oven. However, cooking times will probably be different due to the small
oven cavity.
APPROPRIATE BAKEWARE / PLACEMENT APPROPRIATE BAKEWARE / PLACEMENT
Bakeware suitable for use in your Hestan oven
are metal, heat-proof glass (Pyrex®), glass-
ceramic, earthenware pottery, etc. Cookie
sheets / jelly roll pans with a small lip are also
suitable. Thicker sheets or double-sided sheets
may increase baking times.
Stagger multiple cake pans as shown here.
Leave approximately 2” [5 cm] space between
all pans and oven walls to allow for hot air
circulation inside the oven.
